After Democrats Suffered a Massive Election Loss, Progressive ‘Influencers’ Say the Party Just Needs to Give Them MORE MONEY

The 2024 election saw the rise of so-called progressive ‘influencers’ who were supposed to help the Democrats get elected. Things obviously didn’t go according to plan. The Democrats lost. Big time.

Now the ‘influencers’ are seeing their gravy train coming to an end and they don’t want that. They are insisting that Democrat donors need to give them more money. That’ll solve the problem, right?

Having tons of cash to work with didn’t help Kamala Harris in the end, did it?

This is incredible

Liberal podcasters and influencers are claiming that Dems can only win if the podcasters/influencers get year-round funding from donors

From the New York Times:

Interviews with more than a dozen Democratic content creators reveal a pervasive belief that Republicans have helped incubate a highly organized and well-funded ecosystem of influencers, podcast hosts and other online personalities who successfully amplified and spread pro-Trump content. And the content creators are blaming scattershot and underfunded efforts by Democrats to make an impression in a sphere they said the party as a whole had overlooked for at least a decade.

While many on the left have spent the last few weeks debating whether Ms. Harris should have granted an interview to Joe Rogan, the right-leaning host of the world’s most popular podcast, some progressive influencers are now more interested in building up a Rogan of their own…

They are banding together to create their own networks to make content year-round and not just in the final months before elections. Their goal is to eventually forge self-sustaining advocacy groups and networks, a left-wing answer to the nonprofit Turning Point USA or the media company The Daily Wire on the right. But first they need buy-in — and cash — from the Democratic Party’s donors and institutions to compete in the new attention economy, where people’s time is the currency.

Democrats still don’t get it.

It’s hilarious watching Dems completely misunderstand Trump’s podcast strategy

Nelk Boys, Rogan, Theo Von, etc aren’t “right wing” influencers/podcasts. They’re just popular. Trump’s strategy worked bc he and JD Vance acted like normal, interesting humans on popular shows

That being said, I fully support Dems burning millions of dollars on content like this pic.twitter.com/Wzn1b2mBdq

The entire mainstream media and 99% of Hollywood are “Democrat influencers” https://t.co/D1BxFjqHHn

It’s hilarious to hear Democrats say that they need their own Joe Rogan. They used to have one. His name is Joe Rogan. They pushed him away.
